Up for auction is my beautiful just finished a 3 year frame off restoration 1971 Pontiac Firebird Formula 400 4 speed. This car was completely stripped down to the bare metal and rebuilt from the ground up. Everything is new or refinished original parts. It still has its numbers matching 400 motor which has been totally rebuilt with everything new and the Muncie 4 speed has also been rebuilt and is all new. This car is a non a/c car with standard interior and no options at all except power steering, brakes and a trunk light. I hate to sell her but I have found another project car to start on so need to sell this car to get the funds to build the next one. The title is clear and in my name. This car is 100% rust free, all rust has been cut out and replaced with new sheet metal, no bondo or fiberglass repair jobs. The body was stripped down to bare metal and all rust cut out and replaced with all new metal. She is painted in base coat clear coat and the beautiful Lucerne Blue paint shines like a diamond! Gets attention everywhere she goes. The interior is flawless with all new carpet, upper door panels, headliner, package tray and seat upholstry. This is her original dash just refinished but the radio area was cut out so I went ahead and installed an in dash CD/MP3 player with Sirius Satellite radio. The console came from a power window car so I installed an ash tray to fill in the power switch hole. All plastic panels are solid and in great shape, original black panels just refinished. The seat belts are her original belts just cleaned up. I liked the engine turned T/A dash bezel better than the wood grain so I installed that and she did not come with the rally gauges or a tach. So I installed those also and they all work. She has a Trans Am dash harness. Now to the drive train. She has her original 400 YS code engine that has been totally rebuilt and bored 30 over with a Comp Cam XE268H cam. She has #13 heads from a 1970 GTO that have been rebuilt and flow great. Original Ram Air intake manifold with numbers matching carb that has also been rebuilt. She has RA3 exhaust manifolds and a Ram Air functional air cleaner and hood. The transmission is a rebuilt Muncie M20 and shifts great with a Hurst shifter. All new clutch and flywheel. The rear end is a 3:42 posi and has also been rebuilt. The exhaust is 2 1/2" exhaust with Flowmaster Super 44 mufflers and original style exhaust tips. Has a beautiful mean sound to her and a great idle. Sounds beautiful going through the gears. The suspension has been rebuilt and upgraded with lowering springs for the front to give her the stance she has and a WS6 front sway bar has been added along with a WS6 power steering box. The rear suspension has WS6 leaf springs and a WS6 rear sway bar. Yes this car was equipped with the factory rear sway bar but I upgraded it to a WS6 bar. The brakes are all new from front to rear with everything being new, all the fuel and brake lines are brand new. The wheels are 15x7 Rally II's and have been bead blasted and power coated with new center caps. The tires are brand new also. I literally just finished this resto a month ago and I bet she doesnt have 100 miles on her since the completion of the resto. Was going to keep her but something else caught my attention. So this car needs to go so I can fund that restoration. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to email me or call me anytime at 318-348-4626, my name is Joe.
